Seventeen years ago, Lil’ Kim burst onto the scene with her Hard Core album. At the time, Lil’ Kim was best-known for her part in Junior M.A.F.I.A. and her rumored romance with The Notorious B.I.G. Lil’ Kim went on to become one of the biggest femcees in the history of hip hop.

In recent years, Lil’ Kim has become a background player in the rap game. Her hiatus from the game was brought about for various reasons. Lil’ Kim has mounted two comebacks and is poised to reclaim her position with this one, as she is making music and also managing Tiffany Foxx.

Lil’ Kim revealed some major news earlier today on Twitter. She released the official cover for her new mixtape, Hard Core 2K13. Already, she has her “Looks Like Money” single that is coming soon and she leaked a trailer for the music video in the form of an Instagram video.
